Tommy Kleyn from the Netherlands was sick and tired of looking at a polluted waterfront everyday on his way to work. He decided to clean it up himself, vowing to fill one garbage bag every single day until the waterfront was clean. As he started doing this, other people joined in, motivated by his ambition for a cleaner environment.

“Everyday, I ride my bicycle to work along the river bank. It’s a nice route to ride, except for one part.”

“A stretch of the river bank is covered in plastic bottles and other pieces of (mainly) plastic trash.”
